Keynote Speaker

The must-attend NSW Women in Life Sciences Luncheon, co-hosted by AusBiotech and Medicines Australia, is back, and we’re thrilled to introduce keynote speaker, Dr Kathryn J Evans.

With over 25 years of international management experience working with world leading companies such as Roche, Cochlear and Sanofi, Kathryn will show how closing the gender leadership gap can accelerate Australia's recovery from the global pandemic and achieve equality for all. Author of the recently published Advance Australia Fairly: How a Plan for Gender Equality can Drive Australia's Economic Success, Dr Evans was awarded a Doctor of Business Administration for her research on women in senior leadership. In 2020 her research findings were published in the Asia Pacific Journal of Human Resources. Kathryn lives on Sydney's lower north shore with her husband, two teenage daughters, six backyard chooks and a lop-eared rabbit called "The Boonie".

Your hosts

Big Sisters programme

Become a Big Sister: The Big Sisters programme invites leaders in the sector to connect with those aspiring to a career or career progression in the life sciences. It provides a practical and tangible way to support and encourage women in the late stages of their studies to enter a career in life sciences. Big Sisters will sponsor women students to attend the event and meet their network during the luncheon. Sponsorship of a Little Sister is for the duration of the luncheon only. To become a Big Sister, simply tick the option within the form when registering yourself or your table.

Up to 30 students will be sponsored to attend the event and receive a one-year membership of AusBiotech.

Little Sister applications

To become a Little Sister, you must be enrolled in an under-graduate or post-graduate course in life sciences, female and living in NSW. Preference will be given to students nearing completion of study and those that will benefit from the programme. The number of Little Sister places will be determined by the number of Big Sister sponsors. AusBiotech will be in touch to confirm the success of your application and sponsored students will be able to attend the luncheon and receive a complimentary one-year membership of AusBiotech. Apply to become a Little Sister here.
